Community Action of Rock and Walworth Counties Fatherhood Initiative is now accepting women too.

Executive Director Marc Perry says the program is now called Project Thrive and they are running some interesting co-ed classes.

Project Thrive collaborates with employers to fill entry level positions with individuals that have the desire and ambition to leave a legacy for their children by becoming independent tax paying citizens.

Project Thrive is intended for parents of minor children who may be unemployed, have a child support order or criminal background, and are eligible for FoodShare.
